In step 306, Pizza sales promotion person/sell seller/franchisor, for example, can be near local private school, with the purpose of cooperating with Food Service Manager.In step 306, the Pizza sales promotion person determine the Food Service Manager whether had Pizza supplier and if the words key to determine there is what problem between Food Service Manager and the current Pizza supplier.If in step 306, this individual school is current to have Pizza supplier, then sales promotion person/sell seller/special permission should tell Food Service Manager or tissue about being used for " equidimension Pizza section plan " a large amount of benefits (ESPSP) of collecting of the fund person, lunch program etc., such as the profit that increases, to the better understanding of nutrition etc.
For example, this example shows the profit risk by using section to sell Pizza to the student on Friday.Be profit maximization, the section that Pizza is cut into about equal sizes is very important.Can know that the common no one of less section in the Pizza group buys and bad avoiding, thereby cause the waste of food, thereby owing to these less sheets can not be sold and have to lose and reduced profit.
If sell unsuccessful, the sales promotion person should be on the basis in rule in the situation of not making sale (on a regular basis) follow-up Food Service Manager to reach business.
" Slice Pizza " plan major advantage be nutrient research show many food popular of eating in the U.S. all be wedge shape (for example, Pizza, cake and group), and the quantity of the saturated fat that these food effect consume and sugar, and relevant with the health status that regresses.Therefore, in food consumption investigation the wedge shape size of food of report need as much as possible accurately (referring to, the magazine Journal of U.S.'s diet association of the American Dietetic Association for example, on March 14th, 2006).Yet, measure the common inaccuracy of standard technique of wedge shape food portion size and therefore method 300 discussed herein be used for eliminating this problem.People only need to look at that how important and therefore determine nutrition content, heat etc. the plan of the struggle of Michele Obama and children obesity is just known can the correct measurement portion size be.
406, the sales promotion person should make special permission sell the manager to be sure of only to sell cheese Pizza group rather than other Pizza bonds, for example, and cheese and peperoni etc.Special permission cabinet booth is supplied cheese and peperoni and other bonds by section usually in special permission cabinet booth, but simple point better and more has profit, this means and only sells the cheese Pizza.If you attempt selling cheese and peperoni; Then inevitable one or another for example the cheese Pizza will at first sell out.After selling out one, be expected to be the fringe cost that amount that remaining match need order will more may cause remaining Pizza and dispensing and tip expense.
408, the sales promotion person need to instruct their quantity of selling Pizza in given race (event) of franchise distribution manager.Need to determine that 410 sales promotion persons the place belongs to large special permission place or little special permission place.
If the place is very large, method 400 proceeds to Fig. 5, and wherein method 400 continues and as method 500.Typically, larger place relates to more large-scale competitive sports, for example school football match.The initial quantity of ordering Pizza be guard and some convenient services are provided.Buy large insulated bag if if possible, spend about 100 dollars.Large insulated bag should be able to 15 14 inch diameters of outfit as many as Pizza.Lent special permission cabinet booth personnel's warmer so that the authorized personnel makes its Pizza keep warm on that night in whole match.The supply comprise or the recommendation fund person of raising buy roll blade cut tool with the cutting Pizza.Cut out equal section in for example Pizza shop although equate the section cutting tool, along with the Pizza cooling, the glutinous stick on top of cheese is nature, and in other words, cheese is got together and needed to separate, and cheese need to be with the hobboing cutter tool separately.There is the insulated bag sales promotion person can recommend larger quantity ordered.Method 500 starts from 502 and 504, for competition, begins to order for example ten Pizzas.If 506, Pizza has early been sold off in the given time, then re-orders other five Pizzas.If do not sell off and do not have time enough to sell more Pizza at 508 these Pizzas, do not buy again more Pizza and the method ends at 512 510.This will reduce dispensing and tip expense, for the special permission cabinet booth in this larger place is reduced the loss and profit maximization.Be understandable that initially selling/competing is that factfinding is movable.Obtain appropriate data and need a period of time.
If the place is little, then use the method among Fig. 6, wherein method 400 continues and originates in 602 in method 600.Typically less franchise operation place be for example basketball court and the wrestling, four Pizzas begin by for example initially ordering altogether 604 for little special permission place.606, if these four Pizzas have been sold off, order again four 608 when match is carried out half.On the other hand, 606, if it has crossed half-court bullfight, order more 610, and the method ends at 612.When they were sold off, they were sold off, so that the fund person of collectting obtains profit and help them to reduce the loss.Take this you and will set up long-term, satisfied client, and they help you to obtain long-term profit.。
After some matches, sales promotion person and the fund person of collectting have had more sensation to order.Remember that weather condition may affect Pizza and sell.Rain and snow mean that people still less attends, and mean that also the Pizza piece sold still less.
